Biomes

Biomes: Note that for the biome dirt/grass blocks, you can move them somewhere else and use them to farm there, at least for now.

Normal: Ores: Clay, Copper, Dark Stone, Iron Can only be farmed on this biome's blocks: None The standard biome, it has hills, rivers, plains, and lots of trees. All the ores found here are also found everywhere else. There are multiple types of both trees and grass. If you want a specific type of tree, you can only try growing saplings in the area you find that type of tree in to get the leaves (and Log Taiga). You can make the different grass colors with the research.

Marsh: Unique Blocks: Marsh Dirt, Marsh Grass Ores: Lead Ore Can only be farmed on this biome's blocks: Alkanet, Hemp, Hollyhock, Wolfbane Comments: About 1/3 to 1/2 water, you may find it difficult to do much farming here unless you go to the effort of filling in the water. If you run out of Marsh Dirt/Grass, remember that there's 3 layers of dirt under every grass block, even if underwater.

Mountain: Unique Blocks: Snow Ores: Gold Ore, Tin Can only be farmed on this biome's blocks: None Comments: Remember that the ores are only found directly below the snow blocks, and that, as a mountain, the surface level changes a lot, so don't expect them to be on the same level much.

Mammoth Tree: Ores: Coal Ore, Zinc Can only be farmed on this biome's blocks: None Comments: The ores are found in a 27x27 area around the center of the tree underground.

Heath: Unique Blocks: Heath Dirt, Heath Grass, Heath Plants Ores: Silica Sand, Sulfur Can only be farmed on this biome's blocks: Cotton (not on Heath Plants), Wisteria Plant (only on Heath Plants) Comments: The Silica Sand is found only directly below sand. You'll probably want to remove most of the purple Heath Plants for farming cotton.
